a blur

Its been a blur since i've been home. today i realized i haven't even been home for a week...seems longer than that...

13 hrs in Spring Arbor...long enough to sleep a bit, unpack, do laundry, re-pack, grab breakfast with my small group, get insurance on my car and head down to Lexington. i'm still not quite sure how i managed that drive...i think it may have had a lot to do with adrenaline.

Lexington is freezing...although they keep telling me its supposed to be 70 on Saturday. The girls are keeping me busy...and last night i got to help as my older sister delivered my newest niece, Elsa Kate. She's a 10 pounder...and my sister did it naturally! (i'm more than a little proud of/impressed by my sister!). I'm holding down the fort with the other girls...and can't help but feeling like they're bending some rules...and between those girlies and jet-lag i haven't had much time to think/feel/process the fact that i'm home, and what that means.

I'm thankful for truth. went to church on Sunday...a little dazed, more than a little tired - hymns, and scripture that are true. that are solid. i'm thankful for the Hope that we have in Jesus. for the love of God, and His promise to make all things new. and i am thankful that i don't need to understand it to receive it.

Lem - glad you get to be Auntie for a little bit. Relax a little, smell the roses, or whatever there is down there to smell. Breathe! Looking forward to seeing you!
